    Wind chills

    My wife and I are on vacation in Florida and the news just came on talking about a "wind chill factor" of 40 degrees ABOVE ZERO. We just cracked up. We don't consider it a wind chill factor if it's above zero at all.
    I do not want to go home until May!

    I imagine native Floridians find 40 degrees to be "freezing."

    We have good friends near here we see several times during our stay. He is originally from Buffalo and then high school where I grew up. He's lost his cold tolerance. The way they put it is that after a few years "your blood thins" LOL
